Here I am with my current book, at the local coffee shop "the Beanery" it has proven great reading so far. I tried the lib for a while, but would you believe that it was way too noisy!!!!??? I was not getting anything done there!! So, I grabbed lunch, and came here.Okay, yes I look tired...but I am actually not as tired as I look!!:)

Because of Boredom
Grant all the desks in the world
to the man
who writes
but is not a poet.
And in return,
give me a cool glass of water
to put up
with his existence.

I love your quote. I'm going to put that book on my TBR list. You do look tired but that's a great idea to go to a coffee shop. Maybe later I will. Happy readings!
Lovely quote, Bethany! And I like that picture of you :)
Unfortunately I've also had unpleasant experiences with libraries being much too nosy!
The beanery sounds great! I think I'm gonna have to make a coffee run soon--maybe I can get hubby to do it for me?? Probably not! Do you have company with you or did you use your timer on the camera?
